Looks great man. By the way, you did make sure that they didn't over-do the powdercoating right?

I'm talking about the temperature they heated up the wheel to get the paint off. As your rim is forged, powdercoating itself will not weaken the structural integrity, but the temperature they heat the rim up to to get the original paint off might.

If I can find a set of stock GT wheels, I want to paint the face dark gray and leave the lip silver

I'm more impressed by the apparent quality of the black coating than the little read stripe.
